Conference Description:

Big Data and HR is a presentation centered around the need for data in HR and what is the best way to obtain the evidence-based data that HR needs to be strategic partners in the organization. It answers the dilemma of answering the question when is it appropriate to understand how something is going to happen versus why it is happening.

Why Should You Attend:

Every time we turn around we hear the terms AI (artificial intelligence), big data or data mining Being tossed around. In our subconscious we're concerned about how much others know about ourselves.

Are your identities safe or open to the whole world? When we post on social media who all sees the information behind the post?

We hear you, the world is awash in data. At the same time, we are confronted with the dilemma in the workplace. Management confronts HR with two views of the organization. One view wants to know and understand when certain events will occur while others want to know why. Big Data is the supposed answer to the questions. But is it?

By participating in this webinar you will gain a better understanding of what Big Data is and can be while looking at alternaties to the overwhelming nature of huge data collection efforts.
HR and our organizations are confronted with a two-sided coin. Every time John Smith interviews a candidate and the organization hires them the candidate does not stay in the job. Management is screaming what is causing this to happen? Do we blame John Smith? Do we blame the work environment?

This is management pushing the when response. This is big data in action.

As HR professionals the answer to the when question is important but we are more concerned with the answer to the question why it is happening.

Big data nd HR looks at the differences between answering the when question versus the why question.

The webinar suggests if we are primarily answering the why question there is an alternative method to compile the same evidence-based data but in easier terms to understand the needs of the organization.
